Stock Take posting with negative inventory

Hi All,
I have the following problem. I did a stock take on the 31/07/2008 and updated the counted quantities. The stock take has not yet been posted. If I now want to post the stock take I go into the "Stock Posting" screen and enter my date at the top left and then click on the "Update Quantities" button to refresh the On-Hand quantities in line with the date the stock take was captured.
The problem is that if there was more stock sold in the time between the stock count date and the current date than what was actually counted then the system tries to put the on-hand qty into a negative. Since I do not have negative inventory enabled the posting fails.
I would like to know if anyone has a query that will identify the items whose movement from the time of the stock take to the current posting date is greater than the amount counted.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards

Dear Mr Boshard,
In order to know the value of the stock taking in Business One you can check the field 'COUNTED' in OITW.
Therefore, if you compare the counted and the onhand quantity before doing the inventory posting but after the stock taking you will find which items had more quantity at the moment of the stock taking than now.
Please, try this query:
SELECT T0.[ItemCode], T0.[WhsCode] FROM OITW T0 WHERE T0.[Counted] >  T0.[OnHand]
Do not hesitate to come back if you still need help.

  • Stock Take Posting does not balance with Stock Take Variance

    Hi Experts,
    We have a client that has completed and posted a stock take and the result from the variance report is not the same as the total of the stock take journal.
    For example the total gain of the stock take was R839.13 in value
    The stock take journal show a total gain of R2216.89 in value.
    I  run a audit report of the warehouse and the total qty and value match to the variance report of a total gain of R839.13
    I have also checked that the price source for whs stock posting is at item costs which calculates to the same total value of R839.13
    The stock take posting posts a ST Journal and you are not able to drill down into where the figure originates from.
    So it makes it very difficult to investigate or determine why there is a difference.
    Please can you assist with possible solutions or reasons to determine why there is a variance between the variance report and the stock take posting?

  • Transaction Value with negative inventory

    Dear Experts, I need some help understanding why negative quantity inventory can result in a huge transaction value for an inventory item. Let me give an example.
    We do allow negative inventory. We manage inventory by item group and we use FIFO.
    We have an inventory item, let's call it ABC with a purchase price of $27.50 So far that item had only very few inventory transactions. In one of the transactions the inventory went negative (-1). Next day the problem was fixed through a stock posting which brought the inventory balance back to zero.
    The result of that last stock posting was that the transaction value was 262.28 and the cumulative value on the Inventory Audit report shows 234.78! I have no idea why all of a sudden the transaction value is so much higher than the actual purchase price of the item.
    Any ideas?

    When you allow negative inventory, the normal logic for inventory value calculation will be broken.  In this poor case, system will have no way to follow the original logic.  The value you got so high is because the negative value has to be ignored and switched to the remaining inventory.
    In my previous experience, inventory should be allow negative.  Only if you give up, or you don't care, you can let it go.
    Thanks,

  • Stock transfer posting

    Dear All,
    Pls explain me about the stock transfer posting with Tcode ????

    Hi,
    You can post both transfer postings and stock transfers in the SAP system. Transfer postings differ from stock transfers, in that transfer postings are not connected with a physical goods movement. They usually involve a change in stock type, batch number, or material number.
    An example of transfer posting is the release from inspection into the company's own stock.
    Stock Transfer Procedures
    There are three different procedures for carrying out a stock transfer:
    Stock transfer via stock transfer posting using the one-step procedure
    Stock transfer via stock transfer posting using the two-step procedure
    Stock transfer using a stock transport order
    T. codes are MB1B or MIGO
    Thanks,

  • Material Revaluation with negative stock

    Good Afternoon,
    Iu2019m working with negative stock, standard valuation method and item cost by warehouse in SAP B1 2007 SP01 PL08.
    I need to update the standard cost of all items and I'm trying to do that using the Stock Revaluation Transaction but I have the error message: u201CItem XXXXX has been selected with a negative stock quantity and cannot be revaluedu201D and u201CSelected items cannot have a negative quantityu201D. There is any option to work around these messages and update the standard cost?
    Thank you,
    Susana Cunha

    Hi Senthil,
    I don't know how could you so sure about Negative inventory management is a bug in SBO.  You know, there is not much you can do once the inventory become negative.  SAP allows it happen simply because some one may not or may not have a way to care about the accuracy of the inventory.   The best way is setting to not allow it.  The negative inventory is never logical for any applications to MANAGE them.
    Thanks,

  • DTW serial numbers with stock take count

    Has anyone worked out a way to use DTW to load serial numbers into the stock count sheets along with the item counts?

    thanks Joseph but I am trying to do a regular monthly stock take, not a stock 'document' like a receipt or transfer.
    The DTW template oStockTakings is what I have always used; this loads the stock counts into the "Initial Quantities, Stock Tracking and Stock Posting" screen.  But I haven't tried to stock count serialised items before and want to know if there is some way to also load up the counted serial numbers, rather than having to intervene manually at the stock posting tab of the screen mentioned above.
    kind regards,

  • Issue with Negative Value for Total valuated stock 0VALSTCKQTY.

    Hi Experts,
    we loaded the Cube with datasources 2LIS_03_BX, 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM.
    We mapped the quanity field from 2LIS_03_BF in transformation either into Key figures "Quantity issued from valuated stock" (0ISSVALSTCK) or "Quantity received into valuated stock" (0RECVALSTCK ) of the cube.
    For obtaining the Total Valuated stock, we used the Key figure 0VALSTCKQTY. This key figure is having the Inflow and Out flow values as 0RECVALSTCK and 0ISSVALSTCK. When i tried to check the content of 0VALSTCKQTY, the key figure  0VALSTCKQTY is not present in the infoCube content. I understood that the value for this key figure would be calculated at the time of query execution with the formula
    { Last obtained Valuated stock + (Received Valuated Stock u2013 Issued Valuated Stock ) }.
    The issue is the first records in the query is obtained with negative value for the total valuated stock 0VALSTCKQTY even though the values of Received Valuated Stock  and  Issued Valuated Stock are with Zero.  Could any one please help me on how the first record in the query is with a negative value eventhough the inflow and out flow fields of it are with Zero.
    Many Thanks in advance.

    Hi Srini,
    I observed an interresting reason for the stock being with negative in the first record.
    Issue : While executing the BEx report, we have the first record with a negative value.
    Let me explain with an example
    Material  : XYZ
    Plant      : A
    Date of Stock Initialization for data source 2LIS_03_BX -
    >  12th April 2009.
    So on 12 Th April 2009 consider that we have a stock in store with a value of 2640.
    Then we have loaded wih Data source 2LIS_03_BF for all Historic Movement types.
    At the time of query execution we will have the first record with a negative of available stock present on the day of initialization .
    So, as we have initilized the data source 2LIS_03_BX on 12 th April 2009, we have at that time a stock of 2640 in availability.
    Exactly with the same value of 2640, we are having a negative value i.e. -2640.
    and also one more point to be noted is ...as we have initialized the data source 2LIS_03_BX on 12 th APril 2009...it has created a
    opening balance of 2640 on the day of initiailization i.e on 12 th April 2009 in infocube....(which is an extra record...)...so if the previous record of 12,04,2009 is having some value in it..then it will get added to 2640 EA..which will give incorrect stock
    So in the query the records will appear in the below following manner
    Calendar Day     Total stock                                                                Received stock                                          Issued Stock         
    28.12.2005 --->  - 2640 EA
    29.12.2005 --->    2000 EA                                                                       640 EA                                                        0
    10.04.2009 --->      0                                                                                0                                                               2000 EA      
    11.04.2009 -
    >    0                                                                                0                                                                0          
                                 (For making
                                  the earlier record of  initilization to 0  a negative value -2640 EA is created in the first record )
    12.04.2009 (Initializtion day) --->  2640 EA                                                 0                                                                0
    13.04.2009 
    the day before initialization the total stock will be 0 due to the negative effect introduced by the first record and from the day of initialization the records will be the accurate values...  On 12 th april 2009 we can see that a stock of 2640 is brought into the total stock. In fact if there is no negative value i.e. -2640 in the first record then ...the value on 11.04.2009 will be 2640 Ea and this will get summed up with the Opening balance of 2640 EA created by 2LIS_03_BX on the day of intitialization. So on 12 .04. 2009 the total stock will be shown as 5280 EA...so in order to prevent the double value only we observed that the first record is created with the negative of available stock present on the initialization ...to make the record before the day of initialization i.e. 11.04.2009...to be 0...so that from 12 th April 2009 ..will start to see the actual total stock in the query result...
    This is happening only if we use  both the data sources 2LIS_03_BX and 2LIS_03_BF  for loading into BW.....
    If we load alone by 2LIS_03_BF ...then as 2LIS_03_BX is ruled out in the loading...then no negative of available stock will be created ...because there will be bno opening balance created on the day of initialization.....and the opeing balance available will be flowing into consecutive records due to the movement types and 12 th April 2009 will be shown with avaialable total stock of 2640 EA.
    Kindly let us know your opinions on this...
    Thanks.
    regards,

  • My pictures are good quality when I take them with my iPhone 4 camera bit when I send them via mms or post on Facebook they loose a lot of quality. How can I fix this problem?

    When I take photos whit my IPhone 4 camera the pictures look great but recently when I send pictures to friends or try posting them on Facebook the photos loose their quality dramatically and the ones that I sent all look blurry and bad compared tothe original. Please somebody help! I always take pictures with my iPhone and send or post them and this problem is restricting me a lit. Thanks for your help :)

    when I could open iPhoto the library had tripled... photos from years ago from my iPhone and iPhoto had somehow come back onto it (even though I deleted them), the "faces" files had turned into their own photos, photos tripled (some smaller versions some bigger), and loads of random clip art and images I had never seen was on it. There was over 40,000 photos. It was so weird
    Nothing weird. That happens when you import one iPhoto Library into another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
    As for deletions:
    Drag the image from the Event to the iPhoto Trash. Empty it. Then Empty the System Trash. That removes it from the hard disk.
    If that has failed in the past it was due to the Library being corrupted.

  • Posting materials to blocked stock mvt 343 with ref. to a mat doc.

    Hi,
    I posted a goods receipt for subcontracting with MIGO trx and mvt type 101.
    Now I want to post with MIGO a transfer posting (to blocked stock mvt 343) for the related material document but system can't adopt the related materials when entering the material document of the mvt type 101.
    System replies with "Selected material document does not correspond with action to be executed" 
    I can only post manually with MIGO trx the related materials.
    Best regards

    Hi!
    This is the documentation that might enlighten you on this issue:
    Diagnosis
    You want to post a goods receipt, goods issue, or transfer posting with a material document as a reference. The document entered does not correspond with the prerequisites in order to be used as a reference using this functionality.
    System Response
    The prerequisite of this functionality is that there is a material document without a reference, in other words, the document posted at the time must have been an 'Other' goods receipt/goods issue or an 'Other' transfer posting, according to the selection.
    If, for example, you want to post a goods receipt, you cannot use a transfer posting document as a reference.
    Procedure
    Choose a document suitable for the selected activity.
    Hope this helps!

  • Why 'Allow Negative Stock' doesnt go with put away strategy L

    Just a quick question
    Why Putaway Strategy L doesnt go with 'Allow Negative Stock'

    Hi,
    If you enter the putaway strategy L- system will finds the next empty bin where there is no quantiy or no quant.
    If you assign "allow negative stock indicator", if stock is not there (ex for goods issue / delivery) system will generate a negative stock with a negative quant.
    But while placing the new stock system will them neglect the bins with negative quantity (considering as quants), it will place it in the next empty bin.
    It contradicts the logicof negative stock check, so standard will not allow negative stock indicator for putway strategy L.
    thanks,

  • Transfer Stock to subcontractor with reference of Sales order

    Hi,
    Scenario:
    MTO strategy
    We have one operation is subcontracting. When we take MRP run all PurReq. & PLOrd are reference to sales order. But  when we want to transfer material to subcontractor through TCode MB1B Mvt type 541 that time system issue the following message.
    Deficit of SL Unrestricted-use 3,150 KG : 119 1002 RM
    Then we have to transfer stock reserved against sale order to unrestricted.
    Requirement:
    Can we transfer stock to subcontractor with reference to sales order.
    Pl tell me how I resolved this issue.
    Thanks & Regards
    Dhamane

    Hello....
    You can not transfer material from Sales order Stock by movement type 541 as both stocks are Special stocks &  has not recommend to transfer between two special stocks.
    For this Solution ,  Transfer posting to transfer the provided components to a new storage location (for example, 9999) by using movement type 311. This enables you to obtain an overview of those stocks that are physically located at the subcontractor. This information is particularly important when you carry out a physical inventory of the sales order stocks.

  • Restrict goods issue if stock on posting date is zero

    Requirement:
    Current Inventory period : July 2011
    Stock of a material from 01.07.2011 to 30.07.2011 is zero(in MB5B report)
    I upload stock of material  or GRN occur on 31.07.2011. Say Quantity u2013 100
    Now stock as on 31.07.2011 is 100 in MB5B
    Still, Stock of a material from 01.07.2011 to 30.07.2011 is zero(in MB5B)
    Now, If I do goods issue of a material quantity 100 on 15.07.2011. System allows goods issue. though opening and closing stock as on 15.07.2011 is zero.
    After goods issue transaction if I check stock of material on any date between 16.07.2011 to 30.07.2011 , The opening stock and closing stock shows negative.
    I want to restrict goods issue if stock on posting date is zero or less then stock available on posting date.
    Please suggest

    Hi,
    This is not the way SAP is designed. As the previous speakers wrote (and as you noticed yourself), SAP maintains stock figures in the database per month rather than per day. MB5B makes complex calculations in order to find out how much stock you had on a specific date - as you probably noticed on the response time. Performing such calculations every time you do a GI would be unfeasibly heavy task for the system - remember there are organisations that perform hundreds of inventory movements a minute!
    An alternative solution I suppose would be to maintain the daily stock figures in the database. This would make the finding of the stock figure very quick, but on the other hand, the maintenance of such table would be unfeasible - if you post today a GI on say July 1st, you would need to calculate 36 stock figures and update 36 database records!
    Hope this explains the technical issue.
